Freakin' amazing.

Went to the Nickelback concert last night at Joe Louis-AMAZING!
Chad Kroeger=yummy.
That's all I got!

Remember...

When someone you love becomes a memory, the memory becomes a treasure.
My mom and I saw this in the bathroom at a funeral home earlier this week and it has been in my head all week. Rest peacefully Aunt Diana. We miss you.

Been a long week and I am glad for a day off tomorrow. I have a lot of cleaning to do and laundry and what not. But that is ok because I am going on a cruise in 2 weeks!
I am so looking forward to sunshine and relaxation and heat!

Saturday starts my online Microsoft office class! And next Thursday starts my other 2 classes!
I am pumped!

Friday night I am going to a bowling fundraiser. :) Should be fun and the money is for a good cause.

What the world needs now...

What the world needs now,
Is love, sweet love,
It's the only thing that there's just too little of.
What the world needs now,
Is love, sweet love,
No, not just for some but for everyone.

So true...

Hello 2009!

Welcome to a New Year! And it is going to be a great one! (It is going to be what I make it and I am going to make it a great one!)
So far I have so much to look forward to this year!
Let me list a few things...
1. Cruise baby! 3 weeks!
2. Nickelback Concert in February-my fav band!
3. School! Yes! I can not wait to go back to school!
and if all goes as planned...
4. A new Job!

Thinking back on all the past years-they have all been great ones too. There have been some ups downs but for the most part they have been great. I have had a lot to be thankful for such as my amazing family, my cats, my steady, dependable job, my health, an amazing boyfriend! The list goes on...

I do have a few New Year Resolutions that I will try my best to stick by...although I can not guarantee it every day...(and I noticed that a lot of them are similar to my Mom's:) Like mother like daughter!)

1. Be more positive. ( I am very optimistic for the most part but lately I tend to find myself being bogged down by negative thoughts revolving around my job.) I do not like being negative.

2.Exercise more. Brad brought over the treadmill that was sitting in his garage and I am going to try and work out more-I do good when the weather is nice and now I have no excuse for when the weather is bad. I feel so much better when I exercise and I love the healthy glow that it gives my skin!

3. Save money. I am pretty good with my money however, I know that I could do a lot better. I tend to like to spend money just because I have it. I love using coupons and I think I do pretty well when I am grocery shopping. My weakness is if I am bored then I head to Kohl's and Target and I can never leave without spending $100.

4. Be more organized. I have closets and cupboards that have things falling out of them when you open the door. I vow to organize them every week and I do not...it is time to get on that...sometime this year...

5. Clean more...the little details, dusting and what not. The overall appearance is great but if you took a closer look...ew...

6. Recycle!

Christmas 2008

Well it is time to say goodbye to another Christmas and soon it will be time to say goodbye to 2008...another year gone and boy what a fast year!
I had a very nice Christmas and I am exhausted!
I opened a lot of gifts and gave a lot too:) Although presents are not the meaning of Christmas they sure are fun!
It is always nice to see my family and spend time with everyone!

Wiggy and Stash enjoyed their catnip and mice! (see pic of wiggy guarding his toy!)

Lazy Day...

Lots of snow fell today. It is beautiful and I love a white Christmas. Today I did not work and I hung around the apartment all day. I was in pajamas all day:) I cleaned and cleaned! I also wrapped some presents and did some laundry. I hung a shelf on the wall and played with my cats. and by about 6 pm after my nap I was bored to tears!
Tomorrow I am off also and I am awaiting Brad's arrival. I have not seen him in 2 weeks and I miss him like crazy.
I have to finish off my Christmas shopping! I am pumped for Christmas. I love the holidays. I also have to decide what I want to do on New Years Eve. Probably something low key-that's my kind of plan. Maybe a fancy dinner that I can get dressed up for-that's my kind of plan.
Sometime I want to head to downtown plymouth and walk around and look at the Christmas trees. I love doing that! Plus I can take a lot of pictures and scrapbook it!

That's all for now folks!

'Tis the Season!

One week until Christmas!
I am sitting around awaiting the giant snow storm that is going to strike. And if it doesn't, well then that's Michigan for ya!
I still have not finished my Christmas shopping. I never actually feel like I am finished though until Christmas has come and gone.



Brad comes home this weekend! Yes!
